Insurance giant Aviva has 'pushed out' one of its most senior women while she was on maturity leave. Ann Francke, chief executive of the Chartered Management Institute, told the Sunday Times: 'This suggests Aviva is not walking the walk. But it will allow a new Chief People Officer to lead Aviva through the next important chapter. The job cuts have been announced just three months after the appointment of a new chief executive. The group said its separated UK life business will be headed up by Angela Darlington, formerly chief risk officer, while previous Canadian boss Colm Holmes has been appointed chief executive of UK general insurance.
